MILFORD - A Franklin woman was sentenced to five years probation on Thursday for a fatal crash in Mendon in 2013.

Sarah Chandler, 19, admitted to sufficient facts for a guilty finding on a charge of negligent driving. A vehicular homicide charge was dismissed as a result of the plea.

Milford District Court Judge Robert Calagione continued the case without a finding for five years. Calagione also ordered that Chandler obtain a bachelor's degree in that time and complete two traffic-safety programs.

Chandler was charged in a June 2013 crash on Route 16 in Mendon that killed Danvirgil Zamfir, 56, of Woonsocket, Rhode Island.

According to police, Zamfir had pulled his pickup truck over to the side of the road before he was struck by Chandler.

Chandler reportedly told police she was unfamiliar with the area and had been checking her global positioning system device at the time of the accident.

At Thursday's hearing, Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Karlin said Zamfir's widow would not be speaking to the court about the incident.

"She does not want to ruin another person's life," Karlin said.
